Static Party Guide

How does exp party sharing work?

Parties are able to set exp to "Exp Shared" when members are within +/- 15 level. Party exp calculated by the following:

Even Share: The EXP reward of a monster is split evenly across all party members regardless of their level.

• (EXP to be Shared / Number of Party Members) + 1 EXP
• EXP to be Shared increases by 30% for each additional player who has dealt damage to this monster OR has received damage from this monster's non-skill attacks (regardless of that player is a party member or not)
  • This is referred to by players as "tapping"

Why join static parties?

Static parties are a way to easily and quickly level up by having characters focused on designated roles and have an optimal mob killing set-up. The party is typically parked in one spot (a "static party"), with mobbers luring hordes of mobs into area of effect attacks like firewalls/thunderstorm/storm gust.

What are the roles in static parties?

The following are the common terms used in the server for static parties:

Core Roles

Role Name	Role Description
Mobber	Character brings hordes of mobs into the stack
Tapper	Hits mobs with AoE's, because every time a mob is "tapped" by someone (up to 6) it gives additional exp. Examples include Arrow Shower from Archers, Grimtooth for Assassins, Signum Crucis for Acolytes
Taxi	Acolyte classes that will warp party members from town to designated map whenever there's a death or needed
FW (Firewall)	Mage classes with firewall, core to the party set-up for early level maps (Iron Fist, Seals)
Wizard/Super Novice	Storm Gust / Thunderstorm / Any AoE

Party Buffs

Buffs	Buff Description
Poem of Bragi	Cast on wizards so that AoE's have 100% uptime
Service for You	Cast to keep everyone's SP topped up
Mr. Kim	Cast for additional EXP again on top of Tap Bonus
